I am trying install mods into OPENIV for GTA 5 the problem I am having though is that if I do not run it in administrator mode I can not use OPENIV. The issue with that I can not drag and drop and for some reason If I do not use drag and drop the files will not work even if I use a workaround for the drag and drop

You no need to run OpenIV as administrator.

Why you can't use it as regular user?

I have to. It will not work without being used as administrator. If I do not run it as administrator every time I open the program it says error OpenIV does not have access to work with this folder. I even uninstalled and reinstalled it and when you are setting up OpenIV and click the gta 5 directory it shows no files in the folder and says there is nothing there unless I use administrator then it will show the files and I can use it.

When you run it as admin do you see this?

 

I do not think you understand what I am saying. Yes I have done that but OpenIV will not open and run unless I use the administration mode. If I try to run it not in administration mode I get a error say it dose not have access to that file even if I give it access like you showed. It just will not work.
